The Transformational Grants programme is a highly specialised programme. It will make a small number of grants to create systemic change for Armed Forces communities. Grants of up to £300,000 are available.

Under this programme, we will fund a very small number of projects that will deliver permanent and significant changes or improvements for Armed Forces communities, where there are hidden needs not being met by current service provision.

Your project will need work with people from Armed Forces communities who have needs that are having a significant impact on their lives, but who cannot access specialist services because these services are not available or accessible to them.

Eligibility

Charities that were successful under this programme in 2022/23 will not be eligible to apply to this programme in 2023/24.

We invite applications from charities that have been registered in the UK for at least two years at the time of grant award, which can demonstrate relevant experience and engagement.

If your organisation has been registered for less than three years, you should provide clear evidence of your governance arrangements and why you are confident you have the expertise to take on a grant of this size.

Organisations that have been registered for less than three years may be subject to enhanced monitoring arrangements were a grant to be awarded.

We will expect clear evidence of existing work with the specific Armed Forces community that your application would support, including evidence of how people with lived experience will be able to strategically shape the project. We particularly welcome applications that are preventative in nature and can show effective partnership working between Armed Forces charities and specialist or dedicated organisations who will bring expertise and experience to the project.

Charities that are not Armed Forces specific can apply, but we will expect you to show that you will work in partnership with Armed Forces organisations. If working with this sector is new to you, then you will need to make a strong case for why you are now wishing to do so.

Organisations that are not eligible to apply directly, could play a highly effective role in delivering projects in collaboration with an eligible organisation. There is more information on working with others within the programme guidance found further down this page.

What’s available

Grants of up to £300,000 for projects delivered between three and five years.

Themes and priorities

Highly focused:  We are looking for projects that are highly specific and targeted to the needs of a particular and specific community of people within the wider Armed Forces community.

Evidence of need: We are also looking for applications that can be clear about the evidence of why their project is needed. Your application should explain why the needs that your project will address require resource and explain the difference that this will make to people’s lives.

Transformational impact: We are expecting to deliver systemic change, through funding projects that demonstrate an intent for long-term transformation, extending much further than the initial beneficiaries and the organisation receiving the grant. This may relate to how, what, where and by whom services are delivered in the future to this specific cohort, or instigate wholly new strategic solutions. Your application must describe how the impact of the project will continue after the grant has ended.

Consultation and collaboration: You should be able to show how the people who will benefit from this project will be able to shape it and that you will work collaboratively with other organisations over the life of your grant.

We expect this programme to be highly competitive, and that we will receive more good applications than we can support. We will only fund one project for each specific community within the wider Armed Forces community. There is more information in the programme guidance.

If there are a high number of good quality applications, the Trust may not prioritise themes that were supported last year.

Deadlines and dates to note

This is a two-stage application process. Find more information on how to apply in the programme guidance.

The deadline to submit a short expression of interest is 5pm, Monday 14 August 2023.

There is only one opportunity to submit this expression of interest.

If you apply by the deadline, we will review your expression of interest against the criteria in the programme guidance, and contact the strongest applicants before the end of September, inviting you to submit a full application by 11 December 2023. We will make final decisions in February 2024.

L'UNESCO, avec son mandat unique en sciences de la Terre, joue un rôle vital dans la promotion d'un monde durable, avec les géosciences au cœur de sa mission. Un atelier sur la gestion du géopatrimoine dans les sites désignés par l'UNESCO se tiendra du 19 au 22 octobre 2023 pour le personnel travaillant avec les sites naturels actuels ou potentiels désignés par l'UNESCO.

Un appel à candidatures est désormais ouvert jusqu'au 13 août 2023.

L'UNESCO célèbre et protège le patrimoine géologique des sites désignés - dont 93 biens inscrits au titre de la Convention du patrimoine mondial, 195 géoparcs mondiaux de l'UNESCO et 714 réserves de biosphère * - tout en promouvant le développement durable et en relevant les défis posés par le changement climatique et la perte de biodiversité. De nombreux sites ont reçu le label UNESCO pour leur patrimoine géologique, mais la gestion efficace de ce géopatrimoine reste un défi. La nature finie et irremplaçable du géopatrimoine appelle des mesures de conservation appropriées pour assurer sa préservation pour les générations futures.

Les gestionnaires de sites ne sont souvent pas familiarisés avec les méthodes scientifiques et les meilleures pratiques d'évaluation, de suivi et de gestion du géopatrimoine. De plus, l'augmentation des activités touristiques dans ces sites pose des risques pour le géopatrimoine, justifiant des conseils pour relever ces défis. De plus, les changements induits par le changement climatique dans les modèles météorologiques et l'élévation du niveau de la mer nécessitent de nouvelles stratégies pour atténuer les risques pour le géopatrimoine. Étant donné que la géodiversité sous-tend la biodiversité, il est crucial que les gestionnaires de sites désignés par l'UNESCO intègrent les développements à jour sur la géodiversité dans leurs plans de gestion.

Détails de l'atelier

Pour répondre à ces besoins pressants, le Secrétariat du Programme international de géosciences et géoparcs de l'UNESCO, en collaboration avec le Centre du patrimoine mondial et des experts de l'Union internationale pour la conservation de la nature (UICN), organise un atelier sur la gestion du géopatrimoine du 19 au 22 octobre 2023 , dans l'archipel des Açores, Portugal . L'atelier s'adresse au personnel et aux gestionnaires de biens du patrimoine mondial (désignés selon le critère viii) ainsi que d'autres types de zones désignées au niveau national ou international (réserve de biosphère, géoparc mondial UNESCO, parc national, etc.) pour aborder les sujets suivants :

• Depuis 2010, l'UNESCO a reçu 35 candidatures au patrimoine mondial selon le critère (viii). Seuls 16 d'entre eux ont été inscrits sur la Liste du patrimoine mondial sur la base de ce critère et, malheureusement, un grand nombre de propositions d'inscription n'ont pas réussi à démontrer leur valeur universelle exceptionnelle (VUE) faute de pouvoir caractériser correctement la géodiversité et le géopatrimoine du site ;
• L'utilisation touristique croissante des biens du patrimoine mondial et d'autres zones conservées met le géopatrimoine en danger et les gestionnaires de sites demandent des conseils pour faire face à ces risques ;
• En raison du changement climatique, des changements climatiques et de l'élévation du niveau de la mer, les gestionnaires de sites demandent de nouvelles méthodes pour atténuer les risques pour la conservation et la protection du géopatrimoine ;
• Étant donné que la géodiversité sous-tend la biodiversité, les gestionnaires de sites désignés par l'UNESCO visent à inclure dans leurs plans de gestion des mesures appropriées pour garantir que la géodiversité continue de fournir des services écosystémiques, mais ils ne sont pas familiarisés avec les nouveaux développements en matière de géodiversité.

Les candidats éligibles recevront un parrainage de l'UNESCO pour leur participation à l'atelier.

comment s'inscrire

Les représentants éligibles des sites désignés par l'UNESCO, ainsi que d'autres types d'aires conservées traitant de la gestion du géopatrimoine, doivent envoyer les documents suivants au Secrétariat international des géosciences et des géoparcs (IGGP) avant le 13 août 2023 :

• Une brève description géologique de votre site (500-1000 mots)
• Une lettre d'accompagnement expliquant vos attentes par rapport à l'atelier et comment il pourrait vous aider à mettre en place un nouveau plan de gestion du géopatrimoine et/ou à améliorer le plan de gestion du géopatrimoine existant pour votre site et à le livrer (500-1000 mots)
• Votre CV

Le présent appel donne la priorité aux stagiaires des pays en développement et des États membres de l'UNESCO. Les femmes et les participants en début de carrière sont particulièrement encouragés à postuler.

UNESCO, with its unique mandate in Earth Sciences, plays a vital role in promoting a sustainable world, with geoscience at the core of its mission. A workshop on geoheritage management in UNESCO designated sites will be held on 19 - 22 October 2023 for personnel working with current or aspiring natural UNESCO designated sites.

A call for applications is now open until 13 August 2023.

UNESCO celebrates and protects the geological heritage of designated sites –including 93 properties inscribed under the World Heritage Convention, 195 UNESCO Global Geoparks, and 714 Biosphere reserves*– while promoting sustainable development and addressing the challenges posed by climate change and biodiversity loss. Numerous sites have received a UNESCO label for their geological heritage, however effective management of this geoheritage remains a challenge. The finite and irreplaceable nature of geoheritage calls for appropriate conservation measures to ensure its preservation for future generations.

Site managers are often not familiar with the scientific methods and best practices for evaluating, monitoring, and managing geoheritage. Additionally, the increasing tourism activities in these sites pose risks to geoheritage, warranting guidance to address such challenges. Moreover, climate change-induced shifts in weather patterns and sea level rise require new strategies for mitigating risks to geoheritage. As geodiversity underpins biodiversity, it is crucial for UNESCO designated site managers to incorporate up-to-date developments on geodiversity into their management plans.

Workshop details

To address these pressing needs, the UNESCO International Geoscience and Geoparks Programme Secretariat, in collaboration with the World Heritage Centre and experts  from the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN), is holding a workshop on Geoheritage Management on 19 - 22 October 2023, in Azores Archipelago, Portugal. The workshop is for staff and managers of World Heritage properties (designated under criterion viii) as well as other type of nationally or internationally designated areas (biosphere reserve, UNESCO Global Geopark, national park, etc. ) to address the following topics:

• Since 2010, UNESCO received 35 World Heritage nominations under criterion (viii). Only 16 of them were inscribed on the World Heritage List based on this criterion and unfortunately high number of nominations failed to demonstrate their Outstanding Universal Value (OUV) due to not being able to properly characterise the geodiversity and geoheritage of the site;
• Increasing touristic use of World Heritage properties and other conserved areas is putting geoheritage at risk and site managers are asking guidance to address these risks;
• Due to climate change, weather patterns change and sea level rise, site managers are asking new methods to mitigate risks for geoheritage conservation and protection;
• As geodiversity underpins biodiversity, UNESCO designated site managers aim to include in their management plans appropriate measures to guarantee that geodiversity continues to provide ecosystem services but they are not familiar with new developments about geodiversity.

Eligible candidates will receive a sponsorship from UNESCO for their participation in the workshop.

How to apply

Eligible representatives of UNESCO designated sites, as well as other types of conserved areas dealing with geoheritage management, should send the following documents to the International Geoscience and Geoparks (IGGP) Secretariat before 13 August 2023:

• A brief geological description of your site (500-1000 words)
• A cover letter explaining your expectations from the workshop and how it might help you to set-up a new geoheritage management plan and/or improve existing geoheritage management plan for your site and deliver it (500-1000 words)
• Your CV

The present call prioritizes trainees from developing countries and UNESCO Member States. Women and early career participants are especially encouraged to apply.

Please note that the application guidelines, application form, logical framework/timeline and budget templates are only available until midnight GMT on 31 October 2023. Applications made on out-of-date forms from previous years will not be considered.

•  Contact three referees

You need to ask three referees to submit references to WFN in support of your application. Check who is eligible to be a referee in our FAQs, and read the application guidelines to find out what is required of them.

You will be asked to submit your referees’ details in the application portal, and they will receive an automated email requesting their submissions independently before the deadline of midnight GMT on 31 October 2023.

We recommend approaching your referees with plenty of time in advance. Please remember it is your responsibility to ensure your referees meet the deadline of midnight GMT on 31 October 2023.
